With the rapid turn-around times that the high street giants have mastered, their monthly drops are a good indication of what’s in demand. For June, Zara continues to hone in on spring 2012 favourites: statement collars with studs or embellishments, tops with flouncy ruffles, and the less dominant injection of tribal prints and accessories are all modelled by Aymeline Valade.

Bar for one halter cut vibrant red dress, Zara’s June pieces all lean to the relaxed side. And that said, the red dress is the stand-out statement from the lot.
